We kicked of the Wine Festival in style with an "Evening of Oysters & Wine, poolside at Marlin Monroe's. Jenny Orr, her executive chef Ellen and all of the staff absolutely out did themselves. 6 different oyster preparations were available included, raw, fried, with spinach, white sauce and more. The first to go were based on Bonnie Gaster's oyster ceviche recipe. Delicious wines were specially selected to go with the oyster recipes.
The main event on Saturday was incredible. It was a picture perfect day at the lighthouse and the grounds were beautifully decorated with colorful banners, umbrellas and even art supplied by Douglas Jones. This year we added craft beers to the tasting selection and a silent auction for our guests. Thank you everyone who made this event such a success. Volunteers, Auction committee, wine distributors, sponsors, auction item donors and musicians who give up their time to make this event such a success. This shows the world what Tybee can do!
